Indeed. Defensive hand, long club suit with intermediates, no major. What more can you ask for??

Pass... Partner will lead a trump. If LHO pulls it, then our next bid might be interesting.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

How would you interpret 2♣ by opener now?

I also pass.
2♣ by opener shows a hand much improved in the bidding, hence with xxxx ♣
something like AKJx AKQx x xxxx

Pass.
2C would promise both majors.
The only problem with Pass is, that it does not show
any strength, but if the issue arises, lets deal with
this next round.
With kind regards

Of course they won't stay here but passing is the way to start. After some auctions we may even end up playing clubs ourself on this.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I'll pass. No guarantee we beat them, but with 6 of opener's suit and no four card support for one of partner's suits, defending seems like the best option. I would pass a much weaker hand than this one. Here, if partner can lead a trump and the K♥ is an entry we can likely extract all of opener's trumps. More than likely they'll run, and with this hand I'll bid 2C if I have the chance.
